SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 236,006, dated December 28, 1880.

i Application filed March 25, 1880. (Model.)

To all 'whom t may concern:

Be it known'that I, SERRNO A. DRAKE, of Farmer Village, in the county of Seneca, and in the State of New York, have 'invented certain new and useful Improvements in Barn- Door Rollers i and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.

The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of 'a barn-door hanger and roller, as will be hereinafter more fullyset forth.

In order to enable others skilled in the art 'to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation ,referrin g to the annexed drawings, in which'- Figure l is a side view of my baindoor hanger. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same. Fig. 3 represents a perspective view of a portion of the frame detached, showing the means of connecting the cross-bar which forms one of the supports for the roller-shaft.

The letter A indicates a frame consisting of a vertical .hanger provided with screw-apen tures for the screws,.whereby it may be secured to the door, bifurcated at its upper end, and provided with apcrmanent cross-piece, a, forming one ot' the bearings for the roller-shaft, and with horizontal extensions b, tenoned at their extremities for the reception of the slot- .placed loosely on the sha-ft or axle.

ted ends of the removable cross-piece e, which forms the bearing for the other end ot' the roller-shaft,vthe roller-shaft being riveted in place after the roller and anges have been placed thereon, serving to hold the parts together in a most substantial manner without other fastenings. This roller is composed of a center wheel, C, and two side iianges, D D,

made entirely separate from each other and By this construction of the roller much unnecessary friction is avoided, while at the same time the roller is held securely on the track.

Havingtthus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by vLetters Patent, is-

The combination of the hanger A,lbiturcated at its upper end and provided with a permanent cross-piece forming one ot' the bearings for the roller-shaft, and with tenoned horizontal extensions, the detachable cross-piece 3
